Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ICD-10 code for ventricular septal defect?
The ICD-10-CM code for ventricular septal defect is Q21.0. The full clinical description is "Ventricular septal defect". Q21.0 is a billable/specific code that can be used on insurance claims and medical billing.
What does ICD-10 code Q21.0 mean?
ICD-10-CM code Q21.0 represents “Ventricular septal defect”. It is classified under Chapter 17: Congenital Malformations, Deformations and Chromosomal Abnormalities and is a billable/specific code that can be used on a claim.
Is Q21.0 a billable code?
Yes, Q21.0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code and can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a medical claim.
What chapter is Q21.0 in?
Q21.0 is in Chapter 17: Congenital Malformations, Deformations and Chromosomal Abnormalities (codes Q00-Q99).
What codes cannot be used with Q21.0?
Q21.0 has Excludes1 notes indicating codes that cannot be used together with it, including: acquired cardiac septal defect (I51.0).
What SNOMED CT codes does Q21.0 map to?
Q21.0 maps to 110 SNOMED CT concepts: 253596003, 253290005, 253562005, 6996004, 448475002, and 105 more. SNOMED CT is a clinical terminology used in electronic health records.
What are the UMLS CUIs for Q21.0?
